Carolina Auto Auction has won the award all four years that BB&T has handed it out. "Being an independent auction, we are able to make quick responses to the ever-changing auction environment," said Carolina Auto Auction general manager Tommy Rogers. "Every auction functions in a similar way - as a holding lot for vehicles. We owe our success to our exceptional service and personal attention to our dealers. We feel like that's what sets us apart. "Our dealers trust Carolina Auto Auction and know they will be treated fairly here. None are more important than another. The dealer knows that we will do everything we can to get the highest selling price for our clients." BB&T uses approximately 25 automobile, marine and recreational vehicle auctions to sell repossessed vehicles throughout the country. Sales results, sales percentage and expenses relative to liquidation make up a majority of the criteria for its Auction of the Year award. Customer service, facility management and operational effectiveness criteria are used for eligibility requirements. "Carolina Auto Auction has proven that it is a major strength in the auto remarketing world," said Neil Boardman, vice president of remarketing for BB&T/Regional Acceptance Corp. "This is a testament to Henry Stanley, Tommy Rogers and all the dedicated employees at Carolina Auto Auction. The effort they put into each sale, week after week, is truly extraordinary." "All auctions are similar. But at Carolina Auto Auction, it's our employees that make us the right choice," said Henry Stanley, owner of Carolina Auto Auction. Manheim Tennessee and Manheim North Carolina finished second and third, respectively.
